ICVolunteers invites photographers to share their perspective on the topic: "Diverse Perspectives on the Environment, Citizenship and Volunteering”. As part of the celebrations of its tenth anniversary, ICVolunteers is launching a call for creative photography supporting ICVolunteers' emphasis on how much civil society can contribute to good citizenship through volunteer activities and keen knowledge of environmental issues.

This is an opportunity for volunteer photographers to promote and enhance their work through participation in an International Photo Exhibition at "La Galerie", 17 rue de la Coulouvrenière, Geneva, Switzerland, from October 7 to 30 2009.

Photographs will be evaluated based on:

• relevance of the photographs to the proposed theme
• the artistic quality of your work from the perspective of originality, composition, treatment of light, and aesthetics

Selected photographs will be exhibited along with works of internationally recognised photographers at all events related to the exhibition.

ICVolunteers reserves the right to publish any and all competition photos in their various communication tools and on the website, crediting and giving visibility to the photographer.
